  • VinFast CEO Phạm Nhật Quân Anh speaks out for first time on sale of 2 Vietnam factories

    In his first exchange with analysts since taking over as CEO last month, Phạm Nhật Quân Anh said VinFast sold 70,085 electric vehicles in Q2 2026, bringing first-half sales to 43% of its 300,000-vehicle target for the full year. The company plans to launch more models, invest in autonomous driving technology and expand into more markets, including with affiliated taxi company Green SM. Vietnam accounted for 89% of its Q2 EV sales, while the Philippines, Indonesia and India are the key overseas markets, with the Americas and Europe under review. As part of its restructuring, VinFast sold two major factories and transferred 7 billion USD of debt to investors linked to Phạm Nhật Vượng and Vingroup, but said vehicles will still be produced under long-term manufacturing agreements. It also plans to launch its first gasoline-assisted EV, while the VF Wild REEV, its first range-extended EV, is the latest model.

  • Oil slides over 2% as traders weigh Saudi attack risks, demand destruction

    U.S. crude fell over 2% on Monday as investors weighed the risk of further attacks on Saudi energy infrastructure against the possibility that high prices could erode demand. West Texas Intermediate dropped 2.19% to $101 a barrel and Brent fell 1.89% to $114.51, after a sharp rally on Friday following Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia. The Houthis said they had targeted the main airport in Riyadh and oil facilities, and Saudi authorities said they intercepted more missiles and drones on Sunday. Michael Alfaro of Gallo Partners estimated the geopolitical risk premium at about $20 a barrel, warning that a major strike on the East-West pipeline or refining infrastructure could push prices higher, though further gains would likely cut demand. He also flagged refining capacity as a longer-term challenge, while U.S. producers remain cautious about raising capital spending.

  • Asia FX muted, yuan at 4-yr high; dollar drifts lower ahead of c.bank-packed week

    Most Asian currencies moved little on Monday as the dollar drifted lower ahead of a week packed with central bank meetings, most notably the Federal Reserve. The dollar index fell 0.17% in Asian trade after hitting an 18-month high earlier in October. The Fed is widely expected to hold rates at 4.0% on Wednesday, after raising them by 25 basis points in September, its first hike in over three years, as U.S. inflation stays well above its 2% target. Traders will watch comments from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, along with U.S. third-quarter GDP and September PCE data. The yen was muted before a Bank of Japan meeting, where rates are expected to stay at 1.25% but with a hawkish outlook, while the yuan rose to a four-year high with support from the People's Bank.

  • Musk warns over 200 AI neoclouds face ‘guppy-level death’

    Elon Musk warned on X that more than 200 specialist AI cloud providers, or neoclouds, could fail or consolidate as lenders stop financing firms without substantial revenue outside AI data centers. He said SpaceX secured $40 billion of debt financing for GPUs thanks to its investment-grade status and revenue from Starlink and its rocket business. The warning follows a Gartner forecast that more than 80% of neocloud providers will cease operating independently by 2030, as AI providers may spend nearly $1 trillion on infrastructure in 2026 and another $6 trillion from 2027 to 2030 without sufficient revenue for profitable returns. Bitcoin miners that have pivoted into AI infrastructure, such as IREN and Core Scientific, could also be affected. Meanwhile, SpaceX's “Super Intelligence” business generated $7.6 billion in third-quarter revenue, up 830% from a year earlier and more than half of the company's $14.6 billion in quarterly sales.

  • Frank Elderson: Taking action for nature – investing in economic resilience and prosperity

    Frank Elderson, ECB Executive Board member and Vice-Chair of the Supervisory Board, told the COP17 Finance and Biodiversity Day in Yerevan that the world must move from targets to implementation and treat protecting nature as investment rather than spending. He argued that degraded ecosystems raise firms' costs, reduce productivity and disrupt supply chains, noting that 72% of euro area companies depend on at least one ecosystem service and 75% of euro area corporate lending goes to firms highly dependent on one. Citing this summer's drought, he said major rivers including the Rhine, Loire, Po and Danube fell to exceptionally low levels, forcing critical nuclear plants to shut down and hitting hydropower and supply chains. He noted the Kunming-Montreal framework aims for living in harmony with nature by 2050 but progress has been limited, and that ECB analysis suggests the potential consequences could be much larger.

  • Momentum of savings rate increases likely ended

    According to newly released State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) data, average deposit rates at commercial banks rose a further 0.1 percentage points in September, extending the upward run to 11 consecutive months, though the pace has slowed from 0.3 points a month in late last year and early this year. The article says the rise is likely to end this month after many banks cut their minimum deposit rates by 0.5 percentage points on SBV instructions. Under dispatch No. 9736/NHNN-CSTT dated 21 October 2026, the SBV requires commercial banks to cut average deposit rates on new transactions with tenors of 6 months or longer by at least 0.5% per year in the final months of 2026, compared with rates reported between 11 October and 20 October 2026. Many analysts expect rates to hold flat until year-end and decline gradually from 2027, while the SBV warns that banks failing to comply could face tougher measures, including reviewing or lowering credit growth targets.
